Popis: | Academic hospitals must train future surgeons, but whether residents could negatively affect the outcomes of major procedures is a matter of concern. The aim of this study is to assess if pancreatic surgery is a safe teaching model.Outcomes of 1230 major pancreatic resections performed at a high-volume pancreatic teaching hospital between 2015 and 2018 were compared according to the first surgeon type, attending vs resident.Residents performed a selection of 132 (16%) pancreaticoduodenectomies (PD) and 46 (11%) distal pancreatectomies (DP). For PD, pancreatic fistula (25% vs 0, p 0.001), biliary fistula (7.1% vs 3.5%, p = 0.04) and operative time (400 vs 390 min, p 0.001) were lower for residents but post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage was higher (20.5% vs 13% p = 0.024). For DP, pancreatic fistula rate was lower for residents (31.7% vs 17.5% p = 0.046). There was no difference in terms of lymph nodes retrieval both for PDs and DPs, while the R1 resections were more frequent among PDs performed by attending surgeons (31.5% vs 15.7%, p = 0.023).The active participation of residents does not negatively affect outcomes of major pancreatic resections in a high-volume center. By means of case selection and continuous tutoring, pancreatic surgery represents a safe and valid teaching model. |
